Removing a Replication Partner

When deleting a replication partner, make sure both systems are up and
running. If one of the systems is down or unreachable, a warning message is
displayed. This warning is for information only. Once the system that is
unreachable or down comes back up, the replication partner must be deleted
from that system. If both systems are up, the replication partner is deleted on
both systems.

Replication Partners.
Select the check box next to the relevant Replication Partner Name and
click Delete.

Managing Snapshots

Snapshots

Snapshot technology creates a point in time backup of the data that resides
on a volume. There are various policies that can be set for creating a snapshot.
These policies include when a snapshot is to be taken, how many snapshots to
keep, and how much NAS volume space can be used before snapshots are
deleted. Snapshots are based upon a change set. When the first snapshot of a
NAS volume is created, all snapshots created after the baseline snapshot is a
delta from the previous snapshot.
